Product Actions

Fresh from the fridge, Hair Doctor is our deep-cleansing herbal hair treatment that specializes in soothing troubled scalps and nursing hair back to health. Bursting with fresh peppermint oil, Hair Doctor treats the scalp to a tingly, revitalizing sensation as the deep-cleansing fuller’s earth gets to work lifting oils and buildup from the hair and scalp. We mix in super hydrating coconut oil and sweet almond oil to soften hair, and voila…You’re left with a beautifully shiny, voluminous mane.

Thanks Doc!

How to use

Smother your dry hair and scalp with Hair Doctor, massaging gently. Let it work its magic for about 20 minutes, then shampoo out to reveal lustrous locks and a happy scalp. Use 1-2 times per week as required (or desired!)

Hair Doctor is preservative-free! Make sure you keep your pot in the refrigerator and check the best before date before using.

Features

Too fresh to handle: Hair Doctor is so fresh it’s only available in-store, so visit your local shop to pick up a pot (no prescription required)!

I use Lush Henna Hair Dyes on my hair about every two to three weeks. How close to applying Henna can I use Hair Dr? Would it be more beneficial to use Hair Dr. before or after application of Caca products? Will either have an effect on the other?

Hair Doctor and Henna should not have any adverse reactions to each other, but it may be more beneficial to use the Hair Doctor first to clear out any product build up on the scalp, before applying Henna, so you can have a nice even application!

Q:

I've been looking at this product for my boyfriend. He has serious issues with dandruff being caused by exzema on his scalp. He has rough, red patches of dry skin. Would this help ease the itchiness and dandruff?

Yes, this will help relieve him of his itchiness and dandruff! As well as these other products Squeaky Green and Soak and Float shampoo bars, and as well as Superbalm hair treatment!

Q:

I was just curious if the ingredients or method of making this has changed. Its been a few months since my last pot, and before it felt like a whipped mud mask. I bought a pot two days ago (12/22) and it feels more like a firm jelly.

Our formula for The Hair Doctor has not changed, but since each and every batch is made by hand, it might have just been that specific batch that felt a bit different! Rest assured the formula for The Hair Doctor is still the same.

Q:

I wash my hair every other day, and in between washes, I use dry shampoo. Can I use hair doctor over the dry shampoo before I wash my hair on the second day? Or do I need to shampoo and dry before using this?

Although we do not test the hair treatments on colored, or bleached hair, there shouldn't be any problems with using the Hair Doctor. We recommend testing a small strand of hair ahead of time just to be sure that it works with your hair specifically!

Q:

How long is the average time from when you buy the product to when the "best-by" date is reached?

With the exception of our facial cleansers and Fresh Face Masks, nearly all of our products have a 14 month life. Cleansers have a 3 month life and Fresh Face Masks three weeks. All products will come with a sticker letting you know who made your product, the date it is made and the date you should use it by.

Q:

What if there is still a significant amount left after the best used before date? Should it be discarded, or will it just not have as strong of an effect?

We don't recommend using any of our products past their "use by" dates, as all of our products are made with little or no preservatives. If they do contain preservatives, there is only enough for the product to be used safely within the time frame that we state so it is important to stick to the "made on" and "use by" dates.

This product is great with all hair types! We use chamomile oil in Hair Doctor to soothe sore, sensitive scalps. And Irish moss seaweed extract hydrates and softens hair, leaving it gorgeously glossy! I hope this helps!
